THE Lagos State Government has clarified what it spends on the treatment of Coronavirus patients in various isolation centres in the state.
A statement released by the state’s Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr Gbenga Omotoso, on Friday said that factual account of what Prof. Abayomi said was sacrificed for sensational reporting by some news outlets. “It has become evident from the subsequent reporting of the Honourable Commissioner’s comments and answers that there are misunderstandings that require clarification and correction.
“On cost of care, the Honourable Commissioner , in the interest of transparency, offered a window onto the economics of COVID-19 care and, regrettably, some reporters misunderstood his comments.
